Hmmmmm, guess that's an idea.

Change strings before they rust off again.

Now I want to keep mine in case Jeff has figured out a way to tap energy from the force to pay the electric bill by using old guitar strings.
Would I be ruining a surprise if I asked;
WTF Jeff?

Whoops, that must have come off my rash when I was packing the strings up. It's a REALLY nasty rash that covers, well, maybe I've gone too far already...

Thank you. I changed strings on several guitars that really needed it and that left room in the string pile for me to pick up on a GC special on Martin Marquis strings. It will be awhile until I get to those.

I'll take two, please!

Hmmm, hot wire, bell bronze, stainless steel and science...


I thought I'd reuse my Low "E"'s on the weedwacker this Spring. I'll tell you how it goes!

Given that it was JW who said "string doodle", it's not what you think. It's a drawing on the outside of the envelope.
